A Festival of Advent Lessons and Carols
Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. – Isaiah 7:14
Advent is a season of both quiet reflection and joyful expectation. The Festival of Advent Lessons and Carols is intended to be a time of spiritual preparation, as we watch and wait for the coming of the Kingdom of God. Through our experience of sacred Word and music, the story of the coming of Christ gradually unfolds and deepens our understanding of God’s message of love and redemption. The liturgy itself embodies the singing of Advent hymns, the reading of Sacred Scripture, choral anthems by our choir, and our voices joining in prayer to God. May the words and music of this night propel you quietly toward the true joy of Christmas.
